Jena 6 Rally on November 7th

On Wednesday, November 7th, four of the Six -- Theodore Shaw, Robert Bailey, Bryan Purvis, and Mychal Bell -- are expected in court for pre-trial hearings.

As usual, the Jena 6 movement and the ANSWER Coalition plan to stage rallies in front of local courthouses across the country with the demand to free the Jena Six, and drop all the charges. They hope to demonstrate in Los Angeles, Seattle, Washington, DC, New York City, Chicago, and other cities.

They still remain ignorant of the fact that these six individuals are indeed responsible for the severe assault of Justin Barker.

The mainstream media continues to ignore the real facts behind the Jena Six case and continued to advocate certain myths designed to show that racism is even worse than suggested in the town of Jena, LA.

Why can't they check the facts stated by the Christian Monitor where a local journalist living in Jena disputes these so-called "racist" arguments? Are they afraid of hearing the real truth? It's no surprise if they think that the local journalist is a liar.

Why do they continue to tell the rest of the country that race relations in Jena are horrible or are worse, but in reality, they are doing alright?

Isn't it possible that this Jena tragedy is a continuation of the Duke lacrosse and Katrina reporting debacles?

Sure, complain about the all-white jury. But the facts showed that black residents were indeed summoned for jury duty, but none of them wanted to serve. Perhaps they felt uncomfortable with sitting in judgment over another black person.

Complain about the whites-only tree where in fact, there was no such thing, but a joke asked during assembly.

Complain about the DA trying to threaten black students where in reality, he was trying to control some white students that were misbehaving. Lovely way for the media to take his words out of context.

It is pretty weird to see the media not even doing more research to seek out the real truth. Perhaps they are afraid of being labeled as traitors to the civil rights movement.

So read the article and the myths, and decide whether you should continue to believe the Jena 6, or you should do more research and find out what are the real facts and decide that the Jena 6 ought to be punished for they did.
